The original Hull & District Amateur Radio Society (HADARS) was founded in Hull in the early 1900’s although the exact date isn’t known. This makes HADARS one of the oldest radio societies in the United Kingdom and currently has around 20 members. A document from December 1921 records that there were 28 members. Over the years HADARS has operated from various locations around the city of Hull and has had a variety of names. In July 1952 the current HADARS was formed and by November 1952 the society was affiliated to the Radio Society of Great Britain (RSGB). A more extensive description of the history of HADARS can be found on the Club Info area of the website.
HADARS is registered as a training and examination centre for obtaining amateur radio licenses and free tuition is offered to anyone who is interested – see the Licensing & Training page for details.
New members and enquiries are always welcome.
